SPECIAL EXITS GN(W) Farmer, Joyce (A) Farmer, Joyce (C) Farmer, JoyceFANTAGRAPHICS BOOKSStockID: 71708 SKU: JAN231527THE ACCLAIMED GRAPHIC NOVEL- BACK IN PRINT! In the vein of Alison Bechdel or Harvey Pekar- Joyce Farmer's memoir chronicles the decline of the author's parents' health- their relationship with one another and with their daughter- and how they cope with the day-to-day emotional fragility of the most taxing time of their lives. Set in southern Los Angeles (which makes for a terrifying sequence as blind Rachel and ailing Lars are trapped in their home without power during the 1992 Rodney King riots)- Farmer details the slow- inexorable decline in Lars's and Rachel's health- and perfectly captures the timbre of the exchanges between a long-married couple: the affectionate bickering; their gallows humor; their querulousness as their bodies break down.
